Abstract
An implantable inflatable device includes an elongate member having a storage portion and an inflatable portion and a pump assembly operatively coupled to the elongate member and configured to transfer fluid from the storage portion of the elongate member to the inflatable portion of the elongate member.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . An implantable inflatable device, comprising:
an elongate member having a storage portion and an inflatable portion; and a pump assembly operatively coupled to the elongate member and configured to transfer fluid from the storage portion of the elongate member to the inflatable portion of the elongate member.
2 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the storage portion is fluidically coupled to the inflatable portion, the elongate member includes a flow control member disposed between the storage portion and the inflatable portion.
3 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the storage portion is fluidically coupled to the inflatable portion, the elongate member includes a flow restrictor or a valve disposed between the storage portion and the inflatable portion.
4 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member is a first elongate member, the device further comprising:
a second elongate member having a storage portion and an inflatable portion, the pump assembly being operatively coupled to the second elongate member and configured to transfer fluid from the storage portion of the second elongate member to the inflatable portion of the second elongate member.
5 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member is a first elongate member, the device further comprising:
a second elongate member having an inflatable portion, the pump assembly being operatively coupled to the second elongate member and configured to transfer fluid from the storage portion to the inflatable portion of the second elongate member.
6 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member includes an adjustable portion, the storage portion being disposed between the adjustable portion and the inflatable portion.
7 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member includes an adjustable portion, the adjustable portion being configured to be cut to adjust a size of the adjustable portion.
8 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member includes an adjustable portion, the adjustable portion including visual indicia.
9 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member includes an adjustable portion, the adjustable portion including a plurality of pieces configured to be removably coupled to each other.
10 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the pump assembly is operatively coupled to the elongate member via a tubular member.
11 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the pump assembly is operatively coupled to the storage portion of the elongate member via a single tubular member.
12 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member is a first elongate member, the device further comprising:
a second elongate member, the pump assembly being operatively coupled to the first elongate member and the second elongate member via a Y shaped tubular member.
13 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member is configured to be disposed within a penis of a patient.
14 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the elongate member and the pump assembly are configured to be disposed within a pelvic region of a patient.
15 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 1 , wherein the pump assembly is configured to be operatively coupled to a controller.
16 . An implantable inflatable device, comprising:
an elongate member having an inflatable portion; a pump assembly operatively coupled to the elongate member via a tubular member, the tubular member being configured to house fluid, the pump assembly being configured to transfer fluid from the tubular member to the inflatable portion of the elongate member.
17 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 16 , wherein the tubular member includes a first portion having a first size and a second portion having a second size, the second size being larger than the first size.
18 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 16 , wherein the tubular member includes a first portion having a first size, a second portion having a second size, and a third portion having a third size, the second size being larger than the first size and larger than the third size, the second portion being disposed between the first portion and the third portion.
19 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 16 , wherein the elongate member is a first elongate member, the device further comprising:
a second elongate member.
20 . The implantable inflatable device of claim 16 , wherein the pump assembly is configured to be wirelessly coupled to a controller.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
